AMAZING food and service. Our server, Joel, took great care of us by explaining the menu and specialty drinks! Would definitely recommend and WILL BE RETURNING. :)
Amazing food. Nachos and shrimp tacos were really good. The chicken and waffles were also really good. Our server was really not friendly and helpful at all. And in peak summer this restaurant didn't really have the air on. Drinks were good.
In the heart of downtown Houston, amazing food, ambiance and service. Definitely recommend!!!! Good for groups, girls brunch dates and families.
It was a great space to take it easy and lounge a bit. I ordered the blackened shrimp pasta and it was delicious with rich sauce. We had a large group; book club, truly enjoyed ourselves.
We were in town for a conference and discovered this spot while searching for a place to have dinner outside of the hotel. We were greeted instantly upon entering and within just a few minutes our server arrived and took our drink orders. Paul was friendly and took good care of us, especially when we encountered an issue with a panhandler outside the restaurant. The issue was quickly and diplomatically resolved. The fried mushrooms we ordered for an appetizer were amazing. My husband ordered the country fried steak and I ordered the Tuscan chicken. Although the.vegetables were heavy on the basil, the chicken was nicely seasoned. My husband loved the steak, and said the garlic bread was perfect. We had the butter cake for dessert and practically licked the plate clean. We will be returning to Houston for the conference next year and we will definitely plan to eat here again.
Came in for a quick drink, and they did not disappoint. The menu looked pretty good as well! The whole bar had a very cute southern vibe.
I’ve eaten here a few times. The Hot Nashville Chicken quesadillas are amazing! The waffles and hot chicken with the JAM and syrup was good too! The Mac n cheese was mid but I have been here numerous times! I’ll be back!
The food was absolutely fantastic! I was afraid that the sauce on the chicken would be too hot, but it was just perfect. This was easily one of the best meals that I’ve had in a while. Our waiter was extremely kind, but we didn’t see him much. We always had what we needed, however, by asking the other wait staff as they passed by. It was a busy time of day, so parking was a bit of a challenge. We parked a couple of blocks away, but the weather was beautiful so we didn’t mind walking. I LOVED the food and will definitely be back!
